Planting trees at Black Hill Primary School (Vic)

TREES PLANTED

Dear Colleen, We picked up our bare-rooted trees (from Avalon Nursery) during the final week of last term, and planted them straight away.  Our Environmental Monitors along with our teachers helped plant the trees. It was wonderful to receive such a generous donation for our school, and it will be great in the springtime to see the leaves fill the branches and watch them grow. The children were very excited to help plant the lovely trees. Thank you for your thoughtful program and thank you to Brian and Maree Harrison for your most generous donation of 20 mature trees. Yours sincerely, Annie Wynen, Environmental Monitor Co-ordinator/Teacher, Black Hill Primary School [fusion_builder_container hundred_percent=”yes” overflow=”visible”][fusion_builder_row][fusion_builder_column type=”1_1″ background_position=”left top” background_color=”” border_size=”” border_color=”” border_style=”solid” spacing=”yes” background_image=”” background_repeat=”no-repeat” padding=”” margin_top=”0px” margin_bottom=”0px” class=”” id=”” animation_type=”” animation_speed=”0.3″ animation_direction=”left” hide_on_mobile=”no” center_content=”no” min_height=”none”]

Indeed, a huge thank you to the Harrisons for their continued support to our local schools. Through Fifteen Trees, Harrison Funerals arrange to have one mature tree planted for every funeral service. To date, that equates to 232 trees planted in Ballarat and surrounds.

According to Sustainability Victoria, the average Australian lifestyle produces 15,000kg of carbon per year. If that sounds like a lot, it is! Over its lifetime, a tree can collect and store 268kg. This means, we each need to plant 58 trees per year to bring our individual carbon production down to zero. A little tricky for most of us to do in our own backyards, and this is where ‘A Subscription for the Planet’ comes in.
